Congratulations and celebrations if you were some of the wonderful folk who got engaged this year. There are exciting times ahead, but sometimes the engagement season can also be a little overwhelming.
Once the question is popped, the engagement ring is produced and you say YES, that is only the beginning of your journey to getting married. Before your engagement season all becomes overwhelming, let’s have a look at some of the things that can make this part of the engagement journey a little bit more relaxed.
Celebrate Unconventionally
Did you celebrate the event, have a party or was it a quiet event, just the two of you? Perhaps now is the time to be a little unconventional and celebrate in a unique and memorable way. How about a spontaneous trip somewhere, a themed party or a quirky photo-shoot, make it a celebration that reflects your personalities.
Create a Bucket List
How about starting a bucket list together of all the things you want to do before the big day. Maybe you could include adventures, date nights or even simple moments like cooking a new recipe together. Make it a fun and ongoing project.
Engagement Photo-shoot Shenanigans
Are you having a memorable photo-shoot done? Let’s have fun with it, incorporate props, funny poses.
Design Your Dream Hashtag
Once you’ve got some photos maybe you could create a personalised hashtag for your engagement and wedding events. This can add a touch of social media fun and makes it easy for friends and family to share their well-wishes and pictures.
DIY Engagement Party Games
Later plan some light-hearted and entertaining games for your engagement party. Whether it’s trivia about each other or a hilarious couples game, it will keep the celebration lively and interactive.
Create a Time Capsule
Another idea is to put together a time capsule filled with mementos, letters, and predictions for the future. Then you can pen it on your anniversary to reminisce about the early days of your engagement.
Engagement Challenge
Something fun – challenge each other to do something out of your comfort zones before the wedding. It could be taking a dance class, trying a new sport or facing a fear together.
Finally
Laugh Together
Finally, this time can become so stressful so don’t forget to enjoy the process and laugh together. Finding humour in the little things will help keep the joy alive.
Now you have it some simple ideas that will help you enjoy your engagement and the run up to your wedding. The main thing is to ENJOY yourselves.
Congratulations and good luck.
